Why I Write

(an Artist's Apology)



My hands are not the fine,
slim, delicate hands
of the artist.

I have no skill at music,
I lack the grace to dance
and the courage to fly.

No one mistakes me for a movie star,
or begs me to sing at their wedding.

I can do two things.

I can write,
and
I can dream....

Together, they are
enough.

Good poem. You have no need to apologize. You have talent and express yourself well.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
